This is what it takes to put most bikes in good running order.

It often seems as if there's just one or two problems but it's almost always a combination of multiple issues that make a bike not function as it should.

Bikes appear fairly simple but close examination reveals a whole bunch of complex little pieces and parts that have to all work in harmony for the bike to work right.

The Basic Tune Up covers the things that routinely need regular attention and is much cheaper than doing those things separately.
The most common parts needing replacement are cables, housings and brake shoes. Cables get corroded or kinked and bind or drag snd shifting and braking suffers. Brake shoes get worn down or dried out and hard and it gets harder to stop the bike.
Another common issue is chain, gears and derailleurs that have built up too much dried lubricant, crud and grunge to function properly. The only way to get it right is to remove the parts, clean  thoroughly and lubricate.

  • Remove chain, crankset, front & rear derailleurs  & cogset, clean thouroughly & lubricate or replace

Eventually the chain wear out and when it does it jerks & skips on the gears, especially under load.. If this is the case, the gears might also be worn out.

Warped rims can usually be trued but some are bent or kinked or the spokes and nipple are corroded and can't be repaired. If this is the case a new wheel may be the only option.


The rear derailleur hangs down from the frame and it doesn't take much to throw it out of alignment enough to cause erratic shifts and rapid cog wear. Many bikes have the bottom of the derailleur bent in towards the wheel,
causing the chain to not be aligned with the sprockets. It's easy to do, usually from dropping the bike on that side or contact with a root, rock, tree or curb. It's not the derailleur that's bent, it's the hanger that it's attached to. Alignment is accomplished with special equipment that aligns the hanger parallel with the wheel rim and cogs.

If the bearings in the wheels, headset & bottom bracket are worn out, corroded or packed with crud, it's time for an Overhaul.

Upgrades, Alterations & Restoration For All Bikes
Numerous upgrades to your existing bike are possible, some are worthwhile and cost effective, many aren't. It's easy to get carried away and end up spending more and accomplishing less than if you'd bought a new bike. Never the less, with a few dollars spent in the right places many better quality older bikes can perform on par with new ones for way less than the cost of a new bike. I'm always glad to talk with you about options and costs to accomplish what you have in mind.
Free estimates on all repairs, if there's an ailing but worthy bike in your garage bring it in for an honest appraisal of what it will take to make it happy.
